So Mouse made a post this week that says very eloquently exactly how I have been feeling about the wedding lately (and that feeling explains why I quit blogging about the wedding, even though some big decisions have been made).
You see, the wedding and I have been pretty distant lately. It isn’t the wedding I thought it was when we started our relationship, and I’m having trouble adjusting from what I thought it was like to how it really acts. You see, the wedding is a people-pleaser, and it tends to grow fluffy bows when I’m not looking. I stopped answering its calls a while ago, hoping that it would start being sensible, but to no avail.
Unfortunately, I have to introduce the wedding to my family in a few weeks, and I’m afraid it’s not ready for that. So I’m going to have to start working with it, showing it some good manners and how to dress appropriately. Making it sleep on the couch didn’t work, so I’ll try a different tactic, and cross my fingers that come June 19th, I won’t be ashamed of its behavior.
Things I need to work on:
-Music! Music, music, music!
-Centerpieces
-Invites
-Cake
-Sitting v. standing for the ceremony guests
-Undergarments
-Decorations
-Flowers and wonderful flowerlady!
-Invites
-Registry
